Singer Victoria Monét and Her Ex-Fitness Trainer John Gaines Confirm Breakup After Months of Speculation
In a joint statement shared on social media on Monday, September 23, Grammy-winning singer Victoria Monét and her former fitness trainer beau John Gaines have confirmed their breakup. The couple had been avoiding a formal statement about their split, citing the pain it would bring to their fans and the potential for rumors and misinformation to spread.
According to the statement, Monét and Gaines had been trying to avoid discussing their breakup publicly, but it was becoming increasingly difficult to suppress the news. They explained that they had thought long and hard about whether they owed it to anyone to explain where they are as they heal, given the power of social media to magnify the truth or spread false information.
The couple also addressed rumors of infidelity and “false accusations of [their] origin story.” They acknowledged that their split didn’t stem from drama or scandal, but rather from the need to focus on their individual growth and development.
Monét and Gaines reaffirmed their mutual respect and admiration for each other, particularly as they navigate their new role as co-parents to their three-year-old daughter Hazel. They expressed their commitment to doing the necessary inner work to become the best versions of themselves for their daughter’s sake, and trust that God will guide them to where they are meant to be in due time.
The couple concluded by emphasizing their desire to remain a family unit and asking the public to respect their privacy moving forward.
